FAQ – Character generator / creation in games

First version of a review of the tools we’ve used to create character portraits on writeups.org (for original characters, or those without usable visuals). Mostly it’s stuff from video games, though most of it is free or real cheap.

Since creating portraits or full-body models of original characters isn’t a rare need among various sorts of role-players.

This article is updated from time to time. See its table of content.

— Badass tommy gun
— Badass Mosin-Nagant
— All-Inclusive Assault Carbine
